They work in situations where people who do not speak the same language need to understand one another. If you can speak one or more foreign languages and would like an important role where you can work in areas like politics, business or public service, this job could be for you. In this job you would need good listening skills and a clear speaking voice. You would also need to be able to concentrate and think quickly.Interpreting involves listening to, understanding and memorising content in the original 'source' language, then reproducing statements, questions and speeches in a different 'target' language.

business functions such as meetings, conferences, exhibitions and product launches;

criminal justice proceedings, known as public service interpreting (PSI), including police and probation service interviews, court

community-based events and assignments within the education, health and social services sectors.

If you want to work in the community, although you may not need a degree, qualifications in public service interpreting or community interpreting may help you.
